Hi Debbie
I have found the death for 'little' Ann in 1871, and also found a death for Ann Hancox, George's (first ?' wife) Sept Qtr 1864 in Warwick. Free BMD. I have just applied for the marriage of Hannah Bosworth and George Hancox married in 1877 .
Death of Ann Hancox (the wife) is not on my NBI c.d's.
It will be some time next week before I hear about the marriage.
Bye for now
Gill

Hi Debbie
As promised, I am back in touch. Re George Hancox marriage to Maria Wickson/Hickson. I have been in touch with Warwickshire Reg Office, and they do cover Tysoe, BUT they say there is no record of a marriage between George and Maria, but suggest I try 'Find my Past', which I will do, yet both yourselves and myself have found the marriage 14th October 1858, Tysoe Warwickshire. 
Will be in touch when I get the other mariage cert which was Lutterworth.
Regards Gill

Hi Debbie
My fault with the Tysoe marriage
When I checked the Free BMD, it was a marriage at Shipston, so I have re-applied to Warwickshire Reg Office.
Cheers
Gill

Hi Debbie
Reply from Warwickshire says NO to Shipston on Stour, so I have e.mailed them again with the info you have just given to me, including the St. Mary's bit.
I hope that will help them.
I have also just seen the NBI information, which I will print off.
Many thanks for your help on that, and all who replied to your request.
One day there will be an end to this 
Regards Gill

Hi Debbie Good News. They have found the marriage cert for George Hancox and Anna Marie Wickson 1858. I have since found more info. Anna Marie died in 1925 in Oruru, New Zealand. George also died in New Zealand in 1915. Between times, he appears to have married again to someone named Hannah Maria, who is on the 1871 census and born Oxford. I have yet to find that marriage, it is not the marriage to Hannah Bosworth, in Lutterworth.
Is this one of the longest 'big problems' you have had??
Regards Gill

Hi Debbie
I now have in my possession, the marriage certificate for George Hancox and Maria Wickson, and guess what???
Their ages!!!! under - that is all that is written - so I guess they were under age!!!
This MUST end the 'Big Problem' Saga.
Many thanks for your help and the help of others who have been involved with this.
Just to keep your appetite whetted, wait until I start on my Dowding family, they are as big and awkward as the Hancox. 
Cheers
Gill

I'm so excited - I'm brand new here, but I know the answer to this question! :-) Well, most of it. Here goes:
The George Hancox, born 1839 in Tysoe which shows in the censuses for 1871 and before is NOT the same one who shows up in the later censuses. And here's why - he emigrated to New Zealand on the Forfairshire in 1872. His wife, recorded as Hannah Maria, came to NZ with him, but was known here as Ann Maria. They had either two or three children who came with them, and more born in NZ.
Within the next week I should hold in my hands more information to complete my picture of George and Hannah/Ann and just how many children he had, but I do know that one of them born here in NZ, was George Alfred Hancox, who is my husband's great grandfather. There are many, many descendants here in NZ from George Alfred alone.
George of Tysoe (1839) is also featured in some of the historic accounts of emmigration from Tysoe to NZ (which is how I found him in the first place). I have most of his family tree back to 1640 if it's of use to you. George died at Te Karoa, Fern Flat in northern NZ in 1915.
Perhaps we can compare notes on the family tree - I'm trying to fit a number of pieces of the Tysoe jigsaw together still.
Regards Cynthia NZ
